For the information of any students
contemplating Civil Service examinations,
information has reached us from the Civil
Service Commission that the State of
Texas under the apportionment plan is

Fish and Game Department to Offer
Four New Field Courses This Summer
Four new field courses will be
offered by the Fish and Game De
partment this summer, Dr. Walter
P. Taylor, head of the department
announced Friday. The purpose of
these courses is to acquaint grad
uate students and seniors with
field technique and game manage
ment practices.
During the first term of the
summer session a course in stream
survey and fish management meth
ods will be offered by Dr. Kelshaw
Bonham. The work probably will
center around survey of the Col
orado River from the Gulf to its
headwaters with the object of
learning the present status of fish
and fish foods, and the physical
properties of the river.
Another course to be offered the
first semester will be conducted by
Dr. William B. Davis. This group
will make a survey of the birds,
mammals, and plants of selected
portions of Old Mexico. The pur
pose of this work is to acquaint
students with methods of collect
ing field data and to gather in
formation on wildlife conditions in
areas where overhunting and over-
grazing has permitted nearly pri
meval conditions to exist. Reser
vations for this trip must be made
before April 15, as permits must
be secured from the Mexican Gov
ernment for each member of the
party.
During the second term Dr. Davis
will continue a survey of wildlife
conditions in trans-Pecos Texas
which began three years ago. Work
in this course will center around
collecting field data on the status
of both game and non-game ani
mals, and the vegetation in Pre
sidio County in the Big Bend Re
gion.
A survey of the wildlife man
agement and restoration practices
now being used in Texas will be
led by Dr. Taylor. Tentative plans
call for at least one week of study

Beeler, Texas, is swimming a-
gainst Taylor, Aggies, in the 220
yd. and 440 yd. events. Beeler holds
the conference championship in
both distances and Taylor has all
of the other Texas championships
under his belt.
On the spring board, Babe Pap-
ick, Texas, and Bubba Reeves, Ag
gies, will perform for top honors
in diving.
Japhet, Aggies, Conway, Ag
gies, and Smith, Texas, are slated
to swim against each other in the
backstroke.
This meet finds the first place
possibilities very unevenly distri
buted and will undoubtedly also
find the winner decided on second
and third placings.
in each of the five game manage
ment regions, where successful
management of deer, antelope,
turkey, quail, waterfowl, fur bear
ers, and other desirable species is
now in operation. Students will
have the opportunity to see at
first hand the techniques of game
management in actual operation..
Students enrolled in these cours
es will be away from the college
most of the term, frequently living
under camp conditions, and study
ing wildlife in the open. All cours
es carry college credit, varying
from four to seven semester hours.

accepted the position of physical
education instructor at the Alamo
Heights High School in San Anton

Aggie Riflists Off
To Match With TSCW
Lieutenant C. A. Williams and
his Texas Aggie Rifle Team go to
Denton today to take on the T:S.
C.W. team in their initial contest.
The feminine sharpshooters gain
ed nationwide recognition, when
they outfired the Aggie team in a
grueling match here last year.
However, the T. S. C. W.ian's were
given a handicap, which brought
ample amount of praise in favor
of the Aggies. This time, how
ever, it will be a straight match
with no handicap of any kind being
accepted.
Competition for the A. & M.
Rifle team has been nil this year
while T.S.C.W. has seen compe
tition here and there. Their latest
exploit was the one-sided victory
over the Dallas Rifle Club, which
indicates that the so-called weaker
sex won’t be too easy to handle
in their future matches.
If artificial lighting of poultry
houses has been started it must be
continued until early April. Sud
den stoppage of lights before that
time would seriously lessen egg
production.
Nothing succeeds like Sussex
Campus bigwigs who corral most of the extra
curricular honors without half trying, are usual

cinch they’re Arrow addicts. Arrow shirts and

Sussex shirt with wide
spread collar—a hand

designed for $2. It’s a
honey!
See it today in the new
